ICD10 code of Asperger Syndrome and ICD9 code
What is the ICD10 code for Asperger Syndrome? And the ICD9 code for Asperger Syndrome?
Asperger Syndrome, also known as Asperger's Disorder, is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by difficulties in social interaction, communication, and repetitive patterns of behavior. In the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10), the code for Asperger Syndrome is F84.5. This code falls under the category of Pervasive Developmental Disorders (PDD), which includes other conditions such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
In the previous version of the classification system, the ICD-9, Asperger Syndrome was not specifically listed as a separate diagnosis. Instead, it was often grouped under the general category of PDD, with the code 299.80. However, it's important to note that the ICD-9 codes are no longer in use since the transition to ICD-10 in most countries.
It's worth mentioning that accurate coding and diagnosis should be performed by qualified healthcare professionals based on comprehensive assessments and clinical guidelines. If you suspect you or someone you know may have Asperger Syndrome, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate support.
